5 A righteous man hates lies, But a wicked man brings shame and disgrace.
6 Righteousness guards the way of integrity, But wickedness overthrows the sinner.
7 There are some who pretend to be rich, yet have nothing. There are some who pretend to be poor, yet have great wealth.
8 The ransom of a man`s life is his riches, But the poor hears no threats.
9 The light of the righteous shines brightly, But the lamp of the wicked is snuffed out.
10 By pride comes only quarrels, But with ones who take advice is wisdom.
11 Wealth gained dishonestly dwindles away, But he who gathers by hand makes it grow.
